Benjamin Moore

Avocado

2145-10

Avocado is a deep green with golden undertones that keeps it on the warm side of the spectrum. Its LRV of 16.52 indicates low reflectance, so it reads dark and saturated in most lighting. It works well on cabinetry, doors, or feature walls and can also anchor smaller rooms when balanced with lighter surfaces.

Pair it with Manchester Tan and Lenox Tan for warm neutrals, and use Chantilly Lace or Hale Navy for contrast.
